In the Full Suite, $297 a month per location, or $29 a month added to any package.
The problem today

A text that cost twice what you thought, because of one em dash.

A link so long it was the whole message.

Who replied? Nobody knows.

How it works

Priced before you send.

The cost meter is on the compose screen, and it moves as you type.

  1. 01

    Pick the list

    Members, lapsed, free-tan leads, everyone at one salon. Only customers who said yes to offer texts are on it.

  2. 02

    Write it, watch the meter

    Characters, segments, the alphabet, the shortened link. Nine ready-made campaigns to start from.

  3. 03

    Send, or schedule

    Now or Saturday at nine. Delivery, clicks and replies come back to the app.

Billed by the segment.

A text is 160 characters if every character is plain. One curly quote makes it 70. The meter counts them as they go out.

The cost meter

Characters, segments and credits, before you press send.

Short links

Your links become ten-character codes. Three of four booking texts drop a whole segment.

Plain alphabet

The meter flags a character that would triple the cost.

Replies

A reply lands on the customer's file and the campaign's thread.

Per-message clicks

Each recipient's link is their own, so you see who clicked.

A daily cap

No list gets more than one campaign a day.

Sample campaign
142 members, 142 characters, one segment each. 142 credits, and the weekend filled.
Sample data
